This little girl is some how only two months away from being a two year old! I am still trying to ignore this thought, while continually loving every moment I get to watch her grow and learn. She has the personality to fill a room whether she is happy or not so happy...she can fill it!!! She loves everyone and wants to strike up a conversation, but doesn't love when anyone else but her family tries to pick her up! She babbles and talks all day long; although, her vocabulary is growing, it is still often times just a bunch of babble. Sam and I always say to each other that we wish we just knew what she was saying to us, because she is so enthusiastic and intent on what she is saying! She adores her brother and wants to do anything and everything he is doing. They are playing together more and more every day and Jude is pretty ok with that as long as she sticks to his "rules". He is super protective over her also! We told him from the day that she was born that she would be his best friend, and that his job was the help teach, protect, and set an example for her; he takes his job serious, and funny enough, she follows his commands/lead pretty well! She is a little sponge and I am amazed daily at the things she picks up by just observing. She is learning constantly and doing so well with counting and her ABCs. She also still loves to sing and is picking up many songs. She has literally memorized Frozen down to the song effects and we accidentally discovered she LOVES Sesame Street! Her favorite books ("buh") right now are Pat the Bunny, her Lady Bug Girl books, Pout Pout fish, and any books with animal sounds. Our little explorer loves being outside ("side") discovering all that she can and following bubba. She also loves to jump on the trampoline, ride on her little bike and push car, and swing! At the park she loves to wonder around on the play ground and go up the slides, but do NOT ask her to go down one. We'll get there one day! If she's not outside playing, her next favorite thing is wrestling! Yep thats right, this sweet little precious girl loves to pounce and wrestle. If you are sitting on the ground, she will come running over, push you down, and jump on you. She's pretty tough too and not an ounce afraid of Jude being too rough (can't say the same for us). She's a perfect mix of sweet & sassy, and rough & tumble! She also found a new friend this month...her shadow! She loves to follow her shadow and especially dance with "her". We could not be more in love and praise God for this little petite and pudgy little girl!

Aunt Stephie and Quinn
Stats:
- Quinn is wearing 2T clothes, and still in size 5/6 shoes! Has the littlest feet!
- She is now wearing size 6 diapers.
- She has too many teeth to count but none currently coming in.
- Still obsessed with her paci, although mainly only gets it at bed time and in the carseat.
- Continues to be a very picky eater and only eats Sprouts food pouches, cheese, cottage cheese, yogurt, apple sauce, and then pretty much any carb and/or dessert! Most things she won't even touch much less give it a chance, and if I happen to get something by her she will give me the stink eye. She is a brick wall when it comes to branching out with her eating!!!
